Up to the Wire

Bottle up your rage
A time capsule for when you come of age
Tighten the cap and shake it up babe
Tighten the cap and shake it
Please close your mouth
So pieces of yourself don’t fall out
But your teeth don’t work I’m sorry life’s a jerk
Just please learn to chew
Untie your shoes
Until you’re fully nude
Then ask yourself, do I need help
And do the opposite of what you’d do
Don’t stick your dick in crazy
Unless you want to have a crazy baby
When the kitten calls you’ve lost it all
you lost your sweetheart sadie
From what I taste
Your heart is beating at a relatively high rate
And it's hard for me to be so inhumane
You hold me up to the wire
And I saw you yesterday
Leading out the lonely race
But it’s only yesterday
That I found you in my place
You hold me up to the wire

Sour days
Got the Lemonades
How'd it get this way?
Laying on your face
Now you play guitar
Out in the ocean
Are you happy now?
Oh are you happy now?
Give it up
I won’t take no for an answer
You’re giving up
And I won't take no for an answer
Get it into your head
Believe it or not you are only the living dead
And we are fresh out of feelings once again
and again and again
Satisfied?
Would you be so kind?
And say you're happy now
Oh are you happy now?
Give it up
I won't take no for an answer
You’re giving up
And I won't take no for an answer
Get it into your head
Believe me, you're not the only living dead
And we are fresh out of feelings once again
and again and again
Fall away to the back of your mind
Take and take while your heart is unkind
Honestly there’s no honesty left in me
Again

Stringy Bits

You were so young and stubborn in your ways
A flutterby who would liquify someday
Now it's obvious you wouldn't change
You'd rather take your burden to the grave
So you let it out for a little bit
And all of the things that your father said
Won’t let you forget
You forget
Big eyed little dancer
In her living room
She’s got a way of moving
Through the walls of rooms
So you let it out for a little bit
And all of the things that your mother dreamed up for you
Won’t let you forget
You forget
Don’t break another window
It’s too late to let your hair grow
And you wait until it’s over
And you feel like you’re getting older
And you wait to go to sleep now
And you wait to go to sleep now
You wait, you wait
You wait

The Horse's Mouth

I saw a million ways this could end
Ways for it to end
Now we’re back again collecting what’s left
Sweeping the ashes
Oh no don’t do that, don’t you dare
Don’t you dare look back
Are you breathing, are you breathing hard
I saw a million dogs barking at me
Laughing with me
Take it straight from me, from the horse’s mouth
From the horse’s mouth
I lie awake wooden-eyed for you
I lie waiting wooden-eyed
Are you breathing, are you breathing hard
You want me to see them starve
